Looks good, I enjoyed the last F1 game. Some or the penalties could be a bit harsh though in my opinion, especially when you're on a flyer of a qualifying lap and the edge of your tyre just catches the grass and the time doesn't count because you "cut the corner"

I actually love F1 2010. Apart from GP4, it is the best F1 racing game I have ever played.
Yes, the penalties can be a bit harsh, but that just makes it more of challenge not to 'cut the corner'.

Pitstops need to be improved as sometimes you can be sat there for 10 seconds waiting for other cars to pass.

I think if you buy it from the F1 website, they want £54!

But, yes, I will be pre-ordering.

I am rank 1930 at present online out of over 200,000. Sad, oh yes.

£37?!!!

Didn't realise anyone still paid that much for games. I'll wait to see if it has as many bugs as 2010 did and until it hits the magic £25 mark.

Saving my pennies for BatMan2, Assassins4 and GoW3 out in a few months.

The supermarkets might have it cheaper for a couple of weeks when it first comes out, but £37 for a new game is pretty good. Where do you get yours from then???

I found that f1 2010 had little to no feel when using a steering wheel, so got rid after a few days of it.

Hopefully this will be better.

Yeah, supermarket really. Good p/x value too. Shopto sometimes. They have it a couple of quid cheaper.

Certainly is. But Time Trial has the same car performance as Quick Races.
Obviously if you do custom races quite a lot you can turn tyre wear and fuel weight effect on.

Didn't see your invite last night.
What's your ID and we can have a Spa showdown tonight!

Haha, it would be so cool to just turn up, get in casually and kick everyones backside.
There's a place in Essex that runs these I think. £100 or there about for half days racing if you go with about 10 other mates.

There is this place down near Gatwick Airport. Not been myself but a load of the Essex lot did and said it was brilliant!
